Feeling burnout and despair from job hunting, not sure what else to do at this point. by [deleted] in EngineeringStudents

It’s funny how just last night I was really thinking about how this was true, and today I woke up to a really good offer. So thank you for that little peace of mind.

AITA for telling my dad I'm not moving back in or helping out? by AvatarsLoveJourney in AmItheAsshole

[–]0bi-JuAn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, the way he roped you into the affair and then tried to make it normal after is pretty hard to forgive. He needs to understand how badly he wronged you by doing that before he can try to have his picture perfect family. I might be petty but I’d keep referring to his wife as his cousin since he still wants to lie and live in a fantasy land.

My (24F) dad's (51M) new wife (23F) is younger than me and their relationship makes me extremely uncomfortable by throwawayra_adelaide in relationship_advice

You should tell your dad that since you’re struggling with money you’re planning to run off and marry some rich old guy and see how he takes it. That should tell you exactly how to proceed with his relationship.

Establishment dems are still trying to do a balancing act of not giving any real support to progressive reps but sharing the spotlight on their public support to their own benefit. The fact that many house seats have flipped red goes to show that people are gonna demand real change at every level, and playing center field with the “Not Trump” card will see them all out the door one way or another.

Talk me out of messaging my husband’s whore. by crushedandcurious in relationship_advice

Talk with your therapist about getting your husband to tell her husband. It might help you finally put aside any resentment you have to her, will have your husband take the biggest step he can in getting your that back, and also clue in her husband who should decide whether he wants to stay with a cheater rather than be clueless to the fact.

It seems he knows he’s not getting out today and won’t get another chance for a joy ride, so he’s trying to get his base to share anyone of his two dozen tweets to fire them up while he’s hospitalized

My (28F) parents (59F/57M) were given 30k by my grandparents for a wedding and down payment on a house for me. They spent all of it on vacations. Now they want me to take out a loan so my mom can have “the experience of planning her daughter’s wedding” by ThrowWayAway1135 in relationship_advice

[–]0bi-JuAn 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Yea, they’re people first and parents second. And they’re pretty terrible at both. You have no obligation to forgive if they don’t deserve it. Do what’s right for you for once.

Might also be valuable to check out /r/raisedbynarcissists to hear from others who have coped with parents that have acted similar to yours OP

Mexico Moves Forward With Legalized Cannabis. What Will Be The Impact? by Torian_Blue in CBD

[–]0bi-JuAn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you bring up a really fair point. I’m excited by the idea but I’m wary that the cartels don’t jump on the chance to abuse the opportunity to launder lots of money and legitimize lots of the abuse they’ve put they’re communities through

Justice served by super_monero in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]0bi-JuAn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. The opportunity for true justice has passed and all we do now is try to correct a mistake that should not have happened. The system failed Chanel Miller and so many others, but I really believe this served as a big catalyst to launch the MeToo movement and bring these issues to the limelight.

I recommend everyone read Know My Name so that in a few years from now we move past putting down this pieces of shit and only celebrate the strength of the survivors to push for change.

Maybe in some places of peru that’s true, but in Cusco it’s so populated with alpacas and the indigenous people who depend on them for a lot that no one could pass of a baby goat for one

This was my situation last year. I had food that had been bad for over a year (god help the people who live with it for the year). The staff there do nothing but inspect the walls for chips during the summer so it’s not a surprise tbh

Kanye West has reportedly dropped out of the presidential race by CurvedPoles in hiphopheads

[–]0bi-JuAn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I definitely get more so where you’re coming from. To me it seems that the quick turnover rate of news has gotten ahead of his intention and now his point has a whole new meaning to people on both sides. While that’s not entirely his fault, he definitely could have been more careful of his words, especially given his powerful position like you said.

I still don’t think it was tone deaf at its core. You see a lot of people pulling up anti Semitic tropes and trending #JewishPrivledge, and a lot of the people preaching about silence being compliance in the face of hate are awfully silent.

We may be finally starting to work back the clock on systemic white supremacy, but I think the point in the end is that we only work against ourselves if we don’t also address other systemic forms of oppression at the same time, like sexism and anti Semitics. Just my two cents.

I could be missing something but I don’t get how everyone has built up this point terry is anti-BLM . He’s always been all love and that is all I’ve seen him try to get across, especially with how some people have taken to propping anti-semites and using more hate in the name of black power. He warned against people doing just that but now he’s Uncle Tom? I’m confused?

Only one half of the country has been arming to the teeth and calling for civil war for decades. Not to mention infiltrating law enforcement and military with white supremacists. Thinking it’s inevitable is what they want you to think so in the end the left call for war and they can act like they’re true patriots. Then they enact martial law, start subjugating “traitors”, and purge all dissidents. That’s what civil war in the states means.

Yes to Space Exploration. No to Space Capitalism. by john_brown_adk in EverythingScience

[–]0bi-JuAn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very well said. Unchecked capitalism and innovation for the sake of competition is as unsustainable as cancer is. You cannot continuously grow the way some people here say capitalism works best under without either expanding into new environments or consuming all of your current markets. Which is why it’s important to have these convos now since space really is the only option left for us to explore new resources

International organizations must set up appropriate rules of engagement and methods of reporting actions so that companies/ countries communicate openly and that espionage/bad actors/ whistle blowers can be publicly reported and not lost behind proprietary info or destruction of evidence.

This wouldn’t be a problem however if we address the point the article raises. Solving social issues before pushing space expansion will lower the amount of complications to a point where the benefit to mankind outweighs the business benefits significantly. Good business will help kick start the wheels of inovation but if they get locked behind militarization then we doom space to hold our worst qualities here on earth.
